Why do Europeans do this?

Do you see Thais or Indonesians taking credit for Japanese or Chinese accomplishments?

Removing the Ottoman empire was a mistake. Had they stayed in Hungary or defeated Vienna, Trianon would never have happened.

Contrary to your beliefs, you Poles fucked us over. You helped those filthy Habsburgs and sealed our nation's fate forever.

If you're counting, you'll have noticed that the Russians only managed a 2:3 kill ratio against unarmed fishermen. The Oryol fired 500 shells and hit nothing.

This is the fleet they expected to save Vladivostok from the Japanese.

>Poles save the Germans and Austrians

>Soon afterwards, some infantry crossed the river. When they saw the party going on, the infantry demanded alcohol for themselves. The hussars refused to give them any of the schnapps, and while still drunk, they set up makeshift fortifications around the barrels. A heated argument ensued, and one soldier fired a shot. Immediately, the hussars and infantry engaged in combat with one another. During the conflict, some infantry began shouting "Turci! Turci!" ("Turks! Turks!"). The hussars fled the scene, thinking that the Ottoman army’s attack was imminent. Most of the infantry also ran away; the army comprised Italians from Lombardy, Serbs, Croats, and Austrians, plus other minorities, many of whom could not understand each other. While it is not clear which one of these groups did so, they gave the false warning without telling the others, who promptly fled. The situation was made worse when officers, in an attempt to restore order, shouted "Halt! Halt!" which was misheard by soldiers with no knowledge of German as "Allah! Allah!"

>Two days later, the Ottoman army arrived. They discovered 10,000 dead and wounded soldiers and easily took Karánsebes

>Bongs finally let the fleet go after holding them hostage at Tangiers under the guns of half the RN
>Circumnavigating the Cape of Good Hope, support freighters and transports keep falling out due to mechanical failure

>Baltic Fleet finally reaches Madagascar, only to find a message ordering them to hold there indefinitely

>turns out the Admiralty decided to dispatch reinforcements (all old, broken-down ships which the fleet commander had explicitly refused) with orders to "Locate the Baltic Fleet, whose course and heading are unknown to us..."

>2 months sitting in port at Madagascar in summertime
>all crews are confined to ships the whole time
>malaria everywhere
>four different Torpedo Destroyers lost to mechanical failures just from sitting at anchor
>three separate mutinies by pissed off, diseased crewmen

>reinforcements still not there
>decide to hold gunnery practice
>every single battleship misses their targets on every salvo
>exactly one hit scored, on the tug towing the target ship
>gunnery practice is aborted early because it turns out the Admiralty didn't issue enough ammunition for the battleships, while Kamchatka suddenly starts signaling that she's sinking for no reason and one of the cruisers has to stop practice because of a "very large snake" wrapped around the breech of their fore battery
